Book Description

0324224729 978-0324224726 February 15, 2006 004
PRINCIPLES OF ECONOMICS continues to be the most popular and widely used text in the Economics classroom. The 4th edition features a strong revision of content in all 36 chapters while maintaining the clear and accessible writing style that is the hallmark of the highly respected author. The 4th edition also features an expanded instructor's resource package designed to assist instructors in course planning and classroom presentation and full integration of content with Aplia, the leading online Economics education program. In the 4th edition Greg Mankiw has created a full educational program for students and instructors -- Experience Mankiw 4e. "I have tried to put myself in the position of someone seeing economics for the first time. My goal is to emphasize the material that students should and do find interesting about the study of the economy." - N. Gregory Mankiw.


Editorial Reviews

Review

"The book's strengths include its ability to explain in plain language the beauty of economic theory; the concise manner in which real world examples are integrated into the text; and, the online assistance that does an effective job in complementing the text."

"I think that the greatest strengths are that it is clear (written in a student-friendly language), relatively concise, and provides a good coverage of what I think students need to know about principles of economics. I think that the style of the text is personable and is easy for students to read without being condescending. In terms of the coverage, as I noted above, we cover the entire text in my one-semester class, and cover just about exactly the entire text - no more, and only a little (two chapters) less."

"I find navigation process very simple. I am very impressed with Meet your tutor - Master the Learning Objectives section (that is so well planned out and organized). If students are having problems with any of the material and they're serious about being successful in this class, it is impossible for them not to understand the material after doing suggested activities in this section. "Ask the Author" video clips are interesting and clever. "Economic Applications" section also has good navigation system and can be useful for teachers and students both."

This review is from: Principles of Economics, 4th Edition (Student Edition) (Hardcover)
This book is the same as the newer version with a different model here and there but otherwise this edition and the 5th edition are the same. So save money by buying this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better Than I Expected, March 6, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Principles of Economics, 4th Edition (Student Edition) (Hardcover)
This has to be the best economics that I have ever read. This book is easy to read and comprehend and the author does not throw a lot of vocabulary words at you that would require you keep a dictionary on hand. It keeps the reader entertained and it gives you detailed examples of the different concepts that it wants you to understand. This is a great book for someone who is just beginning to step into the world of economics. It keeps you interested!

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting and Informative, March 27, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Principles of Economics, 4th Edition (Student Edition) (Hardcover)
I had to get this book for a class, so I wasn't expecting much. I was pleasantly surprised. The book is well written and easy to understand and has examples of economic policy and their outcomes. Good if you want to learn about economics even without an instructor.
